Hi,

This is the context of "bochs_drm: failed bochs_hw_init() results in
panic". When I boot the system, if plymouth is visible, it crashes. But
if I press ESC to hide it, it boots fine. bochs_drm is build as module
and _not_ included in the initramfs, so it is loaded only after root
filesystem is mounted. And before that, efifb works just fine, including
nice graphical disk passphrase prompt.

Looks like efifb continues to claim the framebuffer resource
(0xc0000000-0xc0ffffff) for some reason, so bochs-drm can't
reserve it.

No clue why, also doesn't reproduce here (standard fedora 31 5.4.7
kernel).  I don't have an encrypted disk, so no passphrase prompt,
maybe that makes a difference.

Extra data point: it worked on 4.19.89.

How does /proc/iomem look after boot, specifically the 0000:00:02.0 pci
bars?
